The Pro Golf Tour, formerly the EPD Tour (European Professional Development Tour), is a developmental professional golf tour based in Germany. It is a third-level tour, the highest level of men's golf in Europe being the European Tour, and the second level being the Challenge Tour. The other third-level tours in Europe are the United Kingdom-based Tartan Pro Tour and Clutch Pro Tour, the Alps Tour, which is sanctioned by the national golf unions of several countries, including France and Italy, and the Nordic Golf League in the Nordic countries. Starting in July 2015, third-level tours carry Official World Golf Ranking points.[1]

History

The EPD Tour was established by Canadian golf professional Wayne Hachey in 1997 and has been recognised as an official third-tier tour by the European Tour since 2001.[2] In 2005, the PGA of Germany took over the EPD Tour.[3] The top ten players on the Order of Merit are awarded a bypass to the second stage of European Tour Qualifying School. The five leading non-exempt players earn status to play on the second-tier Challenge Tour for the following season.

In January 2013, the tour was renamed as the Pro Golf Tour.[4]

EPD Tour alumni include major winner Martin Kaymer,[5][6] as well as Tobias Dier[7] and Marcel Siem, who have both won on the European Tour.
